HI everybody
I don't know if you know the publication "Horses for Life"
in the new edition there are extremly interesting articles:
Philippe Karl opens up on why he finds himself going it alone with an openess and honesty that we have come to know and admire.
Jean Luc Cornille shares on the true purpose of the neck muscles and their true effect on the back. The Science of Motion contradicting the theory behind many of today's training practices.
This month we also explore the difficult questions that many of you have been asking about since you read
Stormy May's last thought provoking article on the horses's back. Read along as Stormy answers one of our readers, and we also explore the question from a different direction based on a quote by Dr. Cook. Thank you for your continuing interaction on this question.
From
Carolyn Resnick who shares on the real differences between Leadership and Dominance, an article that all of us need to read to understand how we can be leaders to our horses to Bea Borelle who shares her experiences on the difficulty of trying to find a training program for a rehabbing horse - incredible horsemen and horsewomen who share freely of their experience and their knowledge.
New research on Equine Stretching. Finally research done on horses. Too often we extrapolate findings on humans to our equine partners, sometimes to their detriment. What is the real relationship of stretching to range of motion for the horse? You may be very surprised by the answer.
Our must read article this month is our contributation Torchlight Never Again by Susannah Cord. An article that will touch your heart and your tears, who helps us understand not only ourselves that much better but our horses as well.
We are especially pleased to introduce Christiane Slawik a new regular photo contributor. Our cover this month, comes from Christiane, one of those special photo's that came out of the camera, literally picture perfect. While they say a picture is worth a thousand words, we will sure you will agree that Christiane's photos, take it one step further. Look for many of Christiane's photos in both this issue such as with Philippe Karl and Bea Borelle as well as in future issues.
